WHAT PEOPLE SAY...

“Thousands of gay men waited hours on the sidewalks surrounding the venue for the latest G5 event, Friday night, Oct. 24. At 1 am., I asked someoene handling the VIP table what was happening. He said a police "inspection" of the event space, Luxy, was underway. One of his colleugues said it should be about another 20 minutes before everyone would be let in. At 2 a.m. I asked a security guard what was happining. He just said, "Police. Tonight," then drew his forearms together in an "X" to indicate that no one would be let in.
This could spell the end to one of Asia's only true circuit parties. The G5 events have been going on for yoears now with only one previous skirmish. But it appeared last night that Taiwanese police did not like gays making their capitqal city into a gay Mecca one every few months of the year. People are already on facebook asking for refunds for advanced tickets they has purchased for Sunday's. After-hours G5 party. Time to start looking froward to the Songkran party, in April, in Bamgkok.
So long, Taipei. You were truly special while it lasted.“
